The news of Yan Han vomiting blood and falling ill quickly spread throughout the capital.
Prince Rui led a large army to the city, and the entire capital, no matter the aristocrats or ordinary people, all stared at the movement of the palace, seeing that the imperial court supervisor was being hurriedly brought into the palace, they knew that something was wrong in the palace.
It wasn't until two o'clock in the evening that Yan Han woke up leisurely.
As soon as he woke up, he saw Yuan Qing's face full of nervousness. When he looked up again, Yan Ze was also standing not far from the dragon couch.
Seeing that Yan Han woke up, Yuan Qing was overjoyed, "Your Majesty! You finally woke up."
Yan Han coughed twice, and Yan Ze hurried over when he heard the movement, "Your Majesty?"
Yan Han only felt that his throat was very dry and had a fishy-sweet smell, so he called out "water", Yuan Qing hurriedly fed him two mouthfuls of warm water, Yan Han moistened his throat, and said, "What time is it?"
Yuan Qing said quickly, "Your Majesty, you have been in a coma for more than two hours."
Yan Han was dazed for a moment when he heard the words, "What's going on in the city... what's going on in the city?"
"Don't worry, Prince Yue Jia and Duke Wei are all guarding outside, Commander Zhao is watching inside the palace, there is no trouble, don't worry."
Yan Han listened, his face was slightly relaxed, but thinking of Yan Ze's words in the afternoon, he immediately came to his senses. He looked at the tent embroidered with dragon patterns above his head, and he was in awe for a moment, and then said, "Change clothes for me, I'm going to Shoukang Palace."
Yuan Qing said anxiously, "Your Majesty, your dragon body is important, now..."
Yan Han glanced over, Yuan Qing immediately fell silent, and immediately called the little eunuch outside to come in and change Yan Han's clothes.
Yan Han coughed as he put on his clothes, and when he stood up, Yan Ze saw the white hair on Yan Han's sideburns at a glance, but it was only an afternoon, but Yan Han seemed to be ten years older, and his steps towards the outside were slow. Staggering and vain, his back is even more rickety.
Yan Han got up and drove to Shoukang Palace, Yan Ze also followed, Yan Han felt at ease seeing Yan Ze now, and asked on the dragon chariot as he walked, "Do you know why he has more than 100,000 soldiers and horses?"
Hearing this, Yan Ze immediately said, "Queen... oh no, the deposed queen was seriously injured and is still unconscious, the old general is also seriously ill, and there is no one to lead the Beifu army, so the old general sent the Beifu army to join Prince Rui. That's why we have the army we have today."
Upon hearing this, Yan Han's eyes flashed a little light.
Although Yan Chi rebelled against him, he didn't know that Yan Chi had already known the secret of the year. Now that the queen had changed, Yan Han guessed that it was the queen who told Yan Chi. Thinking of Yan Chi's threatening words, Yan Han thought again I felt blackness in front of my eyes.
Not long after arriving at the Shoukang Palace, Yan Han hadn't arrived for several months, and now he suddenly appeared, and the Shoukang Palace was in a state of chaos, but Yan Han hurried into the main hall, and as soon as he reached the door, he saw Yan Sui come out in a panic , Seeing Yan Han, he hurriedly saluted.
Yan Han didn't say anything, and went straight to the inner hall to meet the Queen Mother.
At this moment, the Queen Mother had already lay down, and she was muttering something to herself. When she heard the movement, she looked over in a daze. Seeing that it was Yan Han who came, she didn't show any expression on her face. Yan Han walked to the bed and called out in a low voice. , "Mother—"
The Empress Dowager's eyes moved slightly, she looked at Yan Han and said, "You are here, why doesn't your brother come with you?"
Yan Han's eyes changed, and he said in a low voice, "Mother, do you really not remember? Yan Chi rebelled, and he has brought a hundred thousand troops to the city. He wants to seize the throne for his son. Mother, what do you think your son should do? "
The queen mother looked at Yan Han, "The throne? The throne belongs to your brother, and no one else can take it away."
Yan Han was already flustered and frightened, but when he heard this, he felt the fishy sweetness rushing up again in his throat.
"Mother! What if someone wants to take the throne from my brother?"
The queen mother frowned in a daze, "Then...that is against the law of heaven and will be punished by heaven."
Yan Han's heart skipped a beat, and he fell down on the edge of the bed in a moment of dejection. Seeing the empress dowager's bewildered look, Yan Han smiled wryly for a while. At this time, he would actually think of coming to see the queen mother, don't say What's the use of being sober when the queen mother is dying of illness and people don't know about it
Seeing that Yan Han stopped talking, the queen mother murmured something again, and Yan Han listened intently, but saw that the queen mother said "the position of the crown prince is the foundation of the country and cannot be shaken", and then said "please forgive them!" , your brother just went astray for a while"...
Yan Han was shocked when he heard this, and froze at the Empress Dowager's bedside for a moment.
Twenty years ago, after he was rescued from Fenglei Ridge, the first emperor passed away, and he inherited the throne amidst his injuries.
At that time, the Empress Dowager pleaded with him in this way, begging him to spare the relatives of Prince Gong's residence and Fu's children.
He left Concubine Gong and Yan Li behind, but none of the others showed mercy.
He didn't dare to let anyone see the slightest hesitation, and he had to do his best to put on Yan Huai's mask.
Thinking of this, Yan Han shivered suddenly, he came back to his senses and stood up immediately.
For twenty years, he has worked hard in this position for twenty years, and his achievements for twenty years are all attributed to Yan Huai, but now, he is going to be kicked out of the throne like this
Yan Han shook her head, how can that be? !
He had worn a mask for twenty years, and he couldn't take it off, but he had his own blood.
The throne of the Great Zhou should be in the hands of his blood, so that he can live up to his twenty years of hard work.
As for the guilty edict, it only bears Yan Huai's name.
Yan Han suddenly laughed, why didn't he think of this, so what about the crime
As soon as this thought came out, Yan Han suddenly didn't need to say anything to the queen mother, he walked out in a vain manner, and as soon as he walked out of the palace gate, he saw Yuan Qing and Yan Ze outside, and met their worried eyes , Yan Han said with relief, "I agree to Yan Chi's conditions!"
Yan Ze was a little surprised, Yan Han coughed twice, "For Da Zhou's peace, I promised him!"
With that said, Yan Han turned and looked at Yan Sui.
When Yan Sui saw him, he shrugged his shoulders inexplicably.
Yan Han twitched the corners of her lips, squatted down, and said with a rare kindness on her face, "Sui'er, are you afraid?"
Yan Sui showed doubts, "My son... what is my son afraid of?"
"Yan Chi led a large army to the city, are you afraid?"
Yan Sui wanted to shake his head, but looking into Yan Sui's eyes, he nodded again, "Yes, a little..."
Yan Han pulled his lips when he heard the words, and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, you are the proud son of heaven and my blood, and Yan Chi is just the prince of the clan. Father will let you sit on the highest position, and then Behind your back, I will teach you how to become a real Ninth Five-Year Master."
These words frightened the faces of everyone present, and Yan Sui shrank his shoulders and froze.
Yan Han laughed loudly, got up and got into the sedan chair to be driven back to the palace.
Yuan Qing hurriedly ordered to drive, and the group headed towards the gate of Shoukang Palace, Yan Ze followed behind, his eyes were icy cold.
After returning to the Chongzheng Hall, Yan Han hurriedly walked to the desk in the inner study, and wanted to pick up the pen, but his hand trembled as soon as he picked it up. There was nothing else to write, Yan Han said, "Yan Ze, come here , let me tell you, you write—”
When Yan Ze stepped forward, Yuan Qing couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty, you'd better take a rest and drink the medicine first."
But Yan Han said as if he didn't hear it, "I'm telling you, you write, write quickly, just write that I did something wrong, those rumors in the market..."
Yan Han said while rubbing her ears, "What's going on, why..."
Yuan Qing hurriedly supported Yan Han, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Han not only rubbed his ears, but also beat his head with his hands, "I feel my ears are ringing so badly, and my head hurts, this... no, help me to lie down... the medicine... quickly bring the medicine..."
Yuan Qing didn't know what happened to Yan Han at all, he vomited blood during the day, the doctor only said that he was angry, but didn't say that he had other diseases.
In a panic, Yuan Qing passed on the medicine again, and the person who delivered the medicine was an unfamiliar little eunuch. Yuan Qing didn't care about it, so he took a sip of the medicine himself, and then fed it to Yan Han. Han took the medicine, but still said that the headache was unstoppable, "I feel very uncomfortable, I can't write now, Yan Ze, you just write as I want, I want to take a rest, and I will come back to see when I recover..."
Yan Ze responded, and Yan Han closed his eyes as if heaving a sigh of relief, and fell asleep not long after.
Yuan Qing stood up, looked at Yan Ze and said, "My lord, what should I do? Your Majesty said that he wanted to write an edict of sin against himself, did he really want to write it?"
Yan Ze said gently, "I can only follow His Majesty's orders."
Yuan Qing sighed and didn't say anything, "Alright then, where is His Highness writing?"
Yan Ze said, "Let's just write it here. I won't go back to the palace today, so I will wait here. Your Majesty can read anything when he wakes up. This matter is of great importance."
Yuan Qing nodded hurriedly, "That's excellent, I just thank you for your hard work."
Yan Ze smiled and said "no problem", then he really sat behind the desk, and started writing after a while, while Yan Han was sleeping on the couch, murmuring something from time to time, and even more so in the middle of the night. In the dream, he also complained of a headache, Yuan Qing couldn't do anything, but Yan Ze calmly comforted him.
Yuan Qing saw that there was no way out, so he went out of the inner hall to ask someone to deliver the imperial decree, intending to invite the eunuch from the eunuch hospital to come back to the palace again, but when he went out of the hall, he did not see an ordinary little eunuch who followed him, and felt rather strange for a while. Strange, but in this situation, he didn't care about so much, so he had to call a guard nearby to go out of the palace to deliver the order.
The imperial guards never returned, and when the sky was bright, the imperial physician was not seen entering the palace.
Yuan Qing asked anxiously, "What's going on, the emperor fell ill, and the people in this palace are all turned upside down?!"
Although he lost his cronies, the delivery of the medicine was still on time. Yan Ze stayed up all night and did not lose his demeanor. Seeing this, he comforted him, "Let Your Majesty drink the medicine first."
It was already bright outside, after this night, the whole palace seemed to be much quieter than yesterday, seeing that the morning time had passed, Yan Han still didn't wake up, not only that, the person who went to teach the imperial physician was nowhere to be found.
Yuan Qing went out angrily, only to see that the imperial guards were everywhere, even the eunuchs, which he had never seen before.
Yuan Qing frowned, and couldn't help calling a little eunuch to ask where his people had gone, but the little eunuch just shook his head and said nothing, Yuan Qing looked around, and suddenly felt that the place where he had stayed for more than thirty years had become so The sun had already climbed into the sky, and it was clear that the sky was bright, but Yuan Qing's back felt a little chilly. He hurriedly said, "You don't know those people, but you should know where Commander Zhao is..."
The little eunuch still shook his head, so Yuan Qing had no choice but to call a guard nearby to ask, "Where is your Commander Zhao?"
The imperial guard said, "Commander Zhao is guarding at the gate of the palace."
Yuan Qing hurriedly said, "Go and call Commander Zhao here."
Yuan Qing breathed a sigh of relief when the imperial guards led the way.
After entering the inner hall, I saw Yan Ze sorting out the scriptures written last night. The scriptures were extremely long. He said, "Please trouble your father-in-law to get the jade seal, stamp it on it, and then send it out."
Yuan Qing was taken aback for a moment, "Your Majesty won't show it?"
Yan Ze smiled wryly when he heard the words, "I'm actually in a hurry. Naturally, we need to see it. Then we will wait for His Majesty to wake up. After he has seen it, we will send it out at dusk."
Yuan Qing felt that Yanze was a bit weird at the moment, but he couldn't tell where it was, and outside the Chongzheng Hall was still quiet, which was different from the solemn and quiet in the past.
Yuan Qing jumped up anxiously, turned around and walked out. Before taking a few steps, Yan Ze asked, "Where is father-in-law going?"
Yuan Qing suddenly stopped, "I... I went to find my apprentices, His Majesty fell ill, and they disappeared in a playful way. It's really outrageous."
Yan Ze sighed, "Eunuch, don't move around, in case His Majesty wakes up..."
As soon as the words fell, the dragon couch began to cough, Yuan Qing didn't need Yan Ze to say more, he turned around and went straight to the dragon couch, "Your Majesty?"
Yan Han didn't wake up, there was movement in his half-dream, half-dream, and he heard someone shouting, he opened his eyes, but said vaguely, "It's not yet dawn."
After saying a word, he closed his eyes again and fell asleep.
Yuan Qing was stunned, and said for a while, "Is this a nightmare, Your Majesty?"
Yanze Shi Shiran stood not far away, "Eunuch, don't worry, His Majesty will definitely wake up before dark."
While talking, the little eunuch had already brought food and soup, which is nothing in normal times, but today Yuan Qing was surprised, he didn't give orders, and all the people under him disappeared for no reason, but the dining room still knew Serving the Chongzheng Palace, this is really weird!
Looking at Yanze again, Yanze was eating and drinking tea, still acting as if nothing happened, his calm and calm was creepy.
The sun was in the middle of the sky, Yan Han still didn't wake up, the doctor named Zhao Yu didn't appear again, Yuan Qing became more and more afraid, but he couldn't do anything except stay by Yan Han's side, Seeing the sun set and the hour getting later and later, Yuan Qing finally panicked, "My lord... how did you and Prince Rui agree? This is... does your lord know what's going on?"
Yan Ze suddenly raised a finger, "Hush, His Majesty is about to wake up."
Yuan Qing suddenly shut up, and at the same time, he heard Yan Han's sudden panting, and the panting became more and more rapid, as if some huge pain suddenly fell on Yan Han, Yuan Qing was wondering, but heard Yan Han suddenly cried out in pain and struggled—
He also shouted, "Come here... come and light the lamp..."
